Erie County Legislator Kevin
Hardwick has announced Whitehaven Road and Baseline Road on Grand Island will
both be repaved this year. The Erie County Legislature unanimously approved more
than $26 million in roadwork funding, including these two projects.

"These are two of the major
roadways on the Island and these projects will give Island residents the
quality roads they deserve," said Hardwick.

The legislature expedited the
process after receiving the final list from the county executive to ensure that
crews can get on the roadways as soon as possible and address the many issues
facing the county's infrastructure. The county will repave Baseline Road from
Staley Road to Whitehaven Road and Whitehaven Road from Stony Point Road to
Interstate-190.

Hardwick will continue to update
residents on the timeline for roadwork once start dates are scheduled. He
reminds motorists to use caution in work zones, slow down and abide by all
posted signage to keep crews safe.
